physical education
part of the total educational program that contributes, primarily through physical activity, to the total growth and development of all children. It is an instructional program that addresses all learning domains: psychomotor, cognitive, and affective
Title IX
rules out separation of the sexes and requires all offerings to be coeducational. The law is based on the principle that school activities and programs are of equal value for both sexes and that students should not be denied access to participation on the basis of gender
Public Law 94-142

Child Nutrition and WIC (Women, Infants, and Children) Reauthorization Act of 2004
the U.S. Congress required that, by the start of the 2006-07 school year, all school districts with a federally funded school meals program must develop and implement wellness policies addressing nutrition and physical activity
Wellness
a broader concept than physical fitness—it is a dynamic state of well-being that implies living fully and deriving the most from life
Learning strategies
An activity or experience that teachers use to interpret, illustrate, or facilitate learning. They make content and objectives come alive
factors affecting learning strategies
select ones that contribute to total learning|the more complex the concept, the more activities are needed to develop the concept|begin with simple and move to the more complex|include audiovisual aids whenever possible
visual learner
may think in pictures and learn best from diagrams, PowerPoints, videos, and handouts. | often prefer to take detailed notes to absorb information and they generally do better on written tests than oral tests.
auditory learner
learns best through lectures, discussions, and listening to what other students have to say. Written information may have little meaning until it is heard or spoken
kinesthetic learner
is one that learns best through doing, by touching an object, or replicating an action. They may struggle to learn by reading or listening, but will usually perform well in things such as experiments, physical activity, art, and acting
Stability
reflects balance and equilibrium, which affect the performance of many sport skills. |_____ base is necessary when one applies force to or absorbs force from a projectile
Force
a measure of the push or pull that one object or body applies to another|is necessary to move objects of various types and sizes
Levers
offer a mechanical advantage so that less effort is needed to accomplish tasks
Motion
occurs after force has been applied or when force is absorbed
lesson plan
objectives|equipment required|instructional activities|teaching hints
Characteristics of a quality lesson
High level of student engagement|Enthusiastic and actively involved teacher|Well-planned lessons & high expectations|Majority of time used for learning and practice|Minimal management and transition time|Success-oriented and caring climate|Clear objectives and information feedback|Regular evaluation of performance
Design measurable student outcomes
Outcomes must define observable behavior|Objectives must identify clearly and specifically the content to be learned.
Measurable outcome example (psychomotor)
The student will demonstrate four ways to perform forward roll|Using a jump rope, the student will be able to perform three consecutive forward crossover moves
Measurable outcome example (cognitive)
The student will show an understanding of soccer rules by explaining when a corner kick is awarded|The student will demonstrate knowledge and understanding of rhythmic gymnastic routines by diagramming a sample floor routine for balls
Measurable outcome example (affective)
After participating in physical activity, the students will be able to express their personal satisfaction in their accomplishments|The students will be able to share how they feel about participating in physical activities with friends
Anticipatory set
is a technique designed to focus students on an upcoming instructional concept and segue to the next portion of the lesson. Use to “mentally warm up” a class|are most effective when they tie into students’ past learning experiences|Ex) “ask question, briefly allow time for thinking and discussion”
Space
STEPS model|Alter the activity space|Lower baskets|Increase or decrease goal size|Move shooting lines forward or backward|Decrease size of field
Task
STEPS model|Modify rules|Allow more bounces in games like tennis or volleyball|Change position roles|Change speed of movement
Equipment
STEPS model|Use larger or smaller equipment|Change the weight of the equipment
People
STEPS model|Change the size of teams|Alter teams often|Use small-sided games and switch team matchups often
Safety
STEPS model|Always ensure activity modifications maintain high levels of safety for all students
physical fitness
a set of attributes that people have or achieve relating to their ability to perform physical activity
Skill-related fitness
Balance|Agility|Speed|Coordination|power
